construction plan approvals, building permits, and certificates of occupancy. The failure of the Agreement to address a particular permit, condition, term, or restriction

2005 DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT NOT INCLUDED IN THE UNDEVELOPED LANDS.

non-single family residential Dwelling Units on the Undeveloped Lands of the Real Property except for the Freshfields Parcels which receive preliminary subdivision plat approval for the first time after October 12, 2005, and the new non-single family Dwelling Units within the Undeveloped Lands except for the Freshfields Parcels that receive approval for the first time after October 12, 2005 , shall not exceed in the entirety 1,184.

The purpose and effect of this provision is to provide an absolute

limit upon the new Lots or Dwelling Units except for the Freshfields Parcels to a Development total of 1,184 new, additional single family residential Lots and non-single family residential Dwelling Units on the Undeveloped Lands of the Real Property.

Each Lot and condominium Dwelling Unit shown on a recorded master deed that is subdivided or created after the effective date of this Agreement on land now known as Cassique adjacent to Kiawah Island that is being developed by the Property Owner shall count against this cap of 1,184 new, additional single family residential Lots and non-single family residential Dwelling Units on the Real Property excluding the Freshfields Parcels as described herein.

and shall prescribe and determine Lot area, Lot width, Lot depth, Lot coverage, setback and yard requirements, and may adjust the criteria set forth in the Table of General Lot Standards attached as Exhibit 13.3 provided the ARB determines that exceptional circumstances exist with respect to a particular Lot based on unusual configuration, topography, tree cover, or other material considerations.

Freshfields Development Standards

The building development standards and lot standards for the Freshfields Parcels shall be governed by the former County PUD as modified in Exhibit 13.14.

Cassique Development Standards The building development standards and lot standards for the Cassique

shall be governed by the former County PUD as modified in Exhibit 13.15.

Cassique has been planned and developed to be a series of high end

residential neighborhoods within a community organized framework of golf, sports, gardens and the natural low country environment. Particular attention has been given to the creative integration of diverse home sizes and settings. The residential development standards that have governed design and development since inception have included the Charleston County R-4, Single Family Residential 4 District and the Cassique Planned Development (PD-110) District, which was approved March 2, 2005. The primary uses within both districts are single family detached with an overall density limit of 4 residential dwelling units per acre. The Cassique PD is intended to provide greater flexibility to position structures within natural settings as well as establish garden environments and streetscapes that are consistent with the vision of a country garden community. The Cassique PD was approved for portions or the whole of TMS 205-00-00-002,006 and 077.

These standards have been integrated in Exhibits 13.3 Table of General

Lot Standards with specific application to Cassique. It is the intent of the Property Owner to expand the standards of the Cassique PD to TMS 205-00-00-012 Fairway 18 Parcel, as represented in Exhibit 13.13 to create a garden neighborhood adjacent to the clubhouse grounds. Additionally these standards will be expanded to lands within the golf course generally described as an area no greater than 10 acres within the golf course

Property Owners’s previously constructed improvements conforming to Charleston County’s Land Development Regulations in effect at the time of their construction, as well as improvements that are permitted or under construction at the time of annexation, that conform to Charleston County’s Land Development Regulations shall be deemed to be grandfathered and deemed to conform to the Town’s Land Development Regulations.

14. Facilities and Services. The Property Owner certifies that the following services and

Facilities will be in place (or if not fully in place, the cost of their construction fully bonded or letter of credit posted pursuant to the Town Subdivision Regulations) at the times provided below and as to roads, sewer, and water infrastructure, at the times Lots or Dwelling Units in subdivided real property or condominium units on recorded master deeds are offered for purchase to the public. Subject to compliance with applicable Laws with all provisions of this Agreement, the Town hereby authorizes the Property Owner, on its own or through its affiliated companies, to install the Facilities. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Property Owner hereby agrees that adequate Facilities (as defined in the definition of “Facilities” in Exhibit 1.1) shall be available concurrent with the impacts of Development. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to create an obligation for the Town to construct Facilities or on Property Owner to pave the currently unpaved sections of Eugenia Avenue.

roads and other related infrastructure, and, as to Real Property on Kiawah Island, pursuant to and at such times required by the KICA Covenants, transfer same to the KICA if they are intended to be KICA Common Properties or Purchased Common Properties or Restricted Common Properties. As to the roads and other infrastructure for Freshfields and Cassique, the Property Owner agrees that under no circumstances will the Property Owner attempt to dedicate the roads or other infrastructure to the Town nor will the Town accept such roads and other infrastructure.

(b) Water and Sewer.

(i) Provider. The service and Facilities for water and sewer shall be provided by the Kiawah Island Utility, Inc. (currently owned by the Property Owner) or its successor for the Real Property on Kiawah Island. If however the Town were to exercise its right to eminent domain over Kiawah Island Utility, Inc. in accordance with the statutes and constitution of South Carolina or purchase Kiawah Island Utility, Inc., it would become the provider for the Real Property on Kiawah Island. For the portions of the Real Property located at Cassique and Freshfields, the Seabrook Island Utility Commission shall provide the sewer service and St. Johns Water Company shall provide potable water.

Such facilities and infrastructure include but are not limited to, distribution and transmission lines, hydrants, pumps, and lift stations. If an additional, new above-ground water storage facility is needed to serve the Parcels owned by the Property Owner as shown on Exhibit 4.1 (with the exception of Parcel 15), the Property Owner shall pay for it without charge to Kiawah Island Utility, Inc. and donate it to Kiawah Island Utility, Inc. Nothwithstanding the foregoing, the Property Owner shall not be obligated to construct and donate or pay for aquifer storage and recovery (“ASR”) systems or any related facilities or components of ASR systems, including but not limited to pipes, pumps, and above ground storage required and necessary to operate an ASR system. In addition, Property Owner will donate to Kiawah Island Utility, Inc. any real property underlying any above ground storage constructed, including land for any above ground storage for ASR systems.

The Town and the Property Owner acknowledge that binding decisions rendered in prior rate proceedings (and appeals thereof) of Kiawah Island Utility, Inc. have held that the Property Owner does not have a legal obligation to donate all the infrastructure facilities described in (iv) above and that such donation will be made in discharge, and in lieu, of possible future exactions and donations that the Town might otherwise try to recover from the Property Owner in the absence of this Agreement. Town and Property Owner agree that the donations specified in this section shall not, and do not, constitute a waiver of the Property Owner’s right to seek payment for other transmission and related facilities that it may construct for Kiawah Island Utility, Inc. or may construct for it in the future.

(iv) Capacity Analysis. The Town shall have the right to have the Town’s consulting engineers perform an analysis of Kiawah Island Utility, Inc. to determine (a) whether the water and sewer capacity of Kiawah Island Utility is sufficient to handle existing customers, and (b) whether the existing plant and facilities of Kiawah Island Utility are being maintained and repaired in good condition.

Kiawah Island Utility, Inc. agrees to grant the consulting engineers access to such records (excluding proprietary financial information) and its personnel as necessary to complete the report. The Town agrees that the information disclosed to its consulting engineers is confidential and shall be treated by it and its engineers as being confidential. The Town shall pay for the expense of the engineer associated with this analysis. The Town and Property Owner agree to use Thomas & Hutton or a mutually agreed substitute to perform this analysis. (v) Rate Applications. Before intervening in future applications for rate adjustments by Kiawah Island Utility, Inc., the Town shall meet with representatives of Kiawah Island Utility, Inc. and the Property Owner to go over the proposed rate application, in an effort to avoid unnecessary expenditure of revenues of the Town and Kiawah Island Utility, Inc. on the litigation of rate applications. In consideration of the Property Owner entering this Agreement, the Town shall not expend any funds towards the expenses of a third party to assist a third party in intervening in any action before the South Carolina Public Service Commission (“PSC”) involving a proposed rate increase applied for by Kiawah Island Utility, Inc. or any appeal thereof. The Town reserves the right to intervene in PSC proceedings initiated by Kiawah Island Utility, Inc. seeking a rate increase.

(c) Exactions. In return for the provision of the facilities and services set forth in this

section 14 of this Agreement and the same section of the 2005 Agreement and the Initial Agreement, the Town agrees that it will not seek further property or monetary exactions or impact fees related only to the facilities and services described in this section 14, subject to S.C. Code §§ 6-31-80 and 6-31-100 (Cum.Supp. 2004); provided, however, the Town is not the facilities and services provider, except in the event that it exercises its power of eminent domain over Kiawah Island Utility, Inc, in accordance with the statutes and constitution of South Carolina, or purchases Kiawah Island Utility, Inc.

importance and value of the security gates, private rights-of-way and private amenities to the Town, the Property Owner and the owners of property on Kiawah Island and Cassique and to the enhancement and preservation of every property owner's land values. If a judicial challenge is brought seeking to make one or more of the roads on the island open to the general public and the challenging party prevails based, in whole or in substantial part, on the expenditure of public funds by the Town and/or an ordinance passed by the Town and/or other conduct or ownership of facilities of the Town, the Town agrees that it will immediately cease such expenditures, repeal such ordinance, and refrain from owning such facilities (as are inside the security gates) or continuing such conduct. This paragraph shall be subject to the provisions of § 6-31-80 and shall not be construed to prevent the performance or enforcement of the specific provisions of this Agreement.

(d) Extension of Covenants. Property Owner agrees that it will not exercise its rights

under the KICA Covenants to submit contiguous or nearly contiguous properties to the KICA covenants unless there has been prior approval by a simple majority vote of the members present at a duly called meeting of the membership under the KICA Covenants. Parcels 2, 3, 5, 11, 12A, and 12B are excluded from this requirement of approval by the KICA membership.

Property Owner agrees that Property Owner will not seek to add Cassique to the

KICA Covenants by supplemental declaration (that would need to be approved by the members of KICA in accordance with the preceding paragraph) without the prior approval of a majority of the Cassique owners, excluding Property Owner, by vote at a duly called meeting or obtained in a written referendum.

19. Hotel/Inn Zoning. . It is understood and agreed between the Town and the Property

Owner that the Real Property on Kiawah Island is intended to be and shall remain free of a proliferation of hotels or inns. No Hotel Rooms and Support Space are allocated to the Undeveloped Lands on Kiawah Island as defined in this Agreement.

20. Development Schedule for The Project. (a) Commencement date. The Project commenced in the mid-1970's, and has been

ongoing since then.

The Property Owner projects that by the year 2030 the Project should be complete (i.e., all recreational amenities erected, commercial structures built, and essentially all structures erected on building Lots and all necessary infrastructure in place).

Property Owner shall provide to the Town a certification that highland within the Real Property owned by the Property Owner as of January 1, 2016, is 250 acres or greater, the Town and the Property Owner shall enter an amendment to this Agreement extending the term to January 1, 2026. The date of the expiration of the term of this Agreement is the “Termination Date.” .

22. Amending or Canceling The Agreement. Subject to the provisions of § 6-31-80, this

Agreement may be amended or canceled in whole or in part only by mutual consent of the Parties in writing or by their successors in interest and, in the case of the Property Owner, its successors in title who, by virtue of assignment or other instrument become the "Company" under the KICA Covenants.

If the Property Owner and related entities petition to annex into the Town their land at

Cassique, as reflected on Exhibits 1.3 and 4.1, then the Town agrees to consent to add Cassique to the Real Property by amendment to this Agreement and add as parties to this Agreement the related entities that are not already parties. Cassique shall be treated and designated as Parcel 60, as further set forth herein. It is the intent of the parties that the final reading approving such annexation be accompanied by an amendment to this Agreement adding this land to the Real Property and including as Property Owner those owners of such land who are not already parties.

23. Modifying Or Suspending The Agreement. In the event state or federal laws or

regulations prevent or preclude compliance with one or more provisions of this Agreement, the pertinent provisions of this Agreement shall be modified or suspended as

may be necessary to comply with such state or federal laws or regulations. 24. Periodic Review. The Zoning Administrator of the Town, or, if the Town has no Zoning

Administrator, an appropriate officer of the Town, shall review the Project and this Agreement at least every twelve months, at which time the Property Owner shall demonstrate good faith compliance with the terms of this Agreement.

If, as a result of its periodic review, the Town finds and determines that the Property

Owner has committed a material breach of the terms or conditions of this Agreement, the Town shall serve notice in writing upon the Property Owner setting forth with reasonable particularity the nature of the breach and the evidence supporting the finding and determination, and providing the Property Owner a reasonable time in which to cure the material breach.

If the Property Owner fails to cure any material breach within the time given, then the

Town unilaterally may terminate or modify this Agreement; provided, that the Town has first given the Property Owner the opportunity: (1) to rebut the Town's finding and determination; or (2) to consent to amend this Agreement to meet the concerns of the Town with respect to the findings and determinations.

25. Severability. Subject to the provisions of § 6-31-150 and of ¶ 18(a), supra, if any word,

phrase, sentence, paragraph or provision of this Agreement shall be finally adjudicated to be invalid, void, or illegal, it shall be deleted and in no way affect, impair, or invalidate any other provision hereof.

26. Merger. This Agreement coupled with the Exhibits hereto which are incorporated herein

by reference shall state the final and complete expression of the Parties' intentions. In return for the respective rights, benefits and burdens undertaken by the Parties, the Property Owner shall be, and is hereby, relieved of obligations imposed by PDD1a, including but not limited to obligations relating to providing an elementary school site, except those which may be specifically carried forward herein.

The parties hereto agree to cooperate with each other to effectuate the provisions of this

Agreement and to act reasonably and expeditiously in all performances required under the Agreement.

In the event of any legal action instituted by a third party or other governmental entity or

official challenging the validity of any provision of this Agreement, the Parties hereby agree to cooperate in defending such action.

27. Conflicts of law. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with

the laws of the State of South Carolina. 28. Remedies. Each Party recognizes that the other Party would suffer irreparable harm

Page 29: DRAFT OCTOBER 14, 2013 AMENDED AND …...DRAFT OCTOBER 14, 2013 1 AMENDED AND RESTATED DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT BY AND BETWEEN KIAWAH RESORT ASSOCIATES, L.P. AND THE TOWN OF KIAWAH ISLAND

DRAFT OCTOBER 14, 2013

29

from a material breach of this Agreement and that no adequate remedy at law exists to enforce this Agreement. Consequently, the Parties agree that any non-breaching Party who seeks enforcement of the Agreement is entitled to the remedies of injunction and specific performance but not to any other legal or equitable remedies including, but not limited to, damages; provided, however, that Property Owner shall not forfeit its right to just compensation for any violation by Town of Property Owner's Fifth Amendment rights. The Town will look solely to the Property Owner as to any rights it may have against the Property Owner under this Agreement, and hereby waives any right to assert claims against limited partners of the Property Owner, and further agrees that no limited partner or agent of the Property Owner has any personal liability under this Agreement. Likewise, Property Owner agrees to look solely to the Town's assets as to any rights it may have against the Town under this Agreement, and hereby waives any right to assert claims for personal liability against individuals acting on behalf of the Town, its Town Council members, agencies, boards, or commissions.

29. Recording. Within fourteen days after execution of this Agreement, the Property Owner

shall record the agreement with the Charleston County Register of Mesne Conveyance. The burdens of this Agreement are binding upon, and the benefits of this Agreement shall inure to, all successors in interest and assigns of the Parties to this Agreement.

30. Third Parties. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, this Agreement

shall not be binding and shall have no force or effect as to persons or entities who are not Parties or Successors and Assigns to this Agreement.

31. Conveyances. Except as otherwise provided herein, all conveyances or transfers of any

portion of the Real Property to KICA are to be by quit claim deed and for nominal consideration not to exceed one dollar ($1.00).

All improvements prior to conveyance shall be at the Property Owner's expense. The Property Owner hereby freely consents to such conveyances and waives any challenges it may otherwise have to the validity of said conveyances (as exactions or otherwise). Property Owner further agrees to waive any challenges to Town ordinances (regardless of when enacted) passed so as to limit Property Owner's use of Real Property to be conveyed to KICA (or some 501(c)(3) organization) in order to protect and preserve the purposes of the conveyances. Such waiver shall include, but not be limited to all state laws and local zoning and subdivision regulations prohibiting all development of any portion of the Real Property so conveyed, it being agreed to by the Property Owner that said restrictions do not restrict the totality of the Real Property and that the same are reasonable restrictions in time, place and

The Town's determination whether to give its written consent shall be based on the ability of the purchaser/transferee to perform the obligations of this Agreement associated with the tract transferred. Such written consent will not be unreasonably withheld if such ability is demonstrated.

This paragraph shall not be construed to prevent Property Owner from obtaining

indemnification of liability to the Town from third parties.
